Injured Plushenko Pulls Out of Euros

"I should tell you with deep sadness that Evgeny Plushenko has withdrawn from the European championships because of injury. We wish him the quickest of recoveries," ISU sporting director Peter Krick said.

Plu had bad days in his career earlier too- in Budapest, then in Moscow. And now in Zagreb. Three bad days in the longest career which most of the current kids wouldn't even dare to dream of, not saying to achieve the same results. Moreover, when he had a bad day he went down in the chart. In other words he never won what he didn't deserve unlike those whose names shall not be named. Therefore all the assumptions that I read here have no merit.
